Distinguish CM compatibility for CM Boards (CM4 vs CM5)

[geerlingguy]

Right now the site just assumes 'Compute Module 4' for all the boards listed on the Compute Module Boards and Projects, but now that the Compute Module 5 is out, I should have some sort of compatibility indication, both on the overall listing, and the Board page layout, to indicate CM4 vs CM5 compatibility.

In the update, I would also need to set CM5 to 'Unknown' for all boards initially, except for those I've confirmed work (e.g. through my video This tiny computer changes EVERYTHING, or through my blog, e.g. Home Assistant Yellow.

Confirmed working:

• Home Assistant Yellow
• Compute Blade (Dev)
• CM4 IO Board
• CM5 IO Board (not on site yet)
• NEC MPi4 MediaPlayer TV Kit
• Nebra CM4 Flash Stick
• DeskPi Super6C
• Axzez Interceptor 2.0
• Seaberry
• Waveshare CM4 IO Base
• Waveshare CM4-NANO-B
• Cytron CM4 Maker Board
• Piunora (mod allows Pin 26 to be used as a power button)

Confirmed not working:

• CM4 TV Stick
• MirkoPC v1
• SourceKit PiTray Mini
• Radxa Taco So far...

Looking forward to seeing if the Taco will end up working with the CM5. Would love faster speeds and the NVMe boot.

I got lots of mixed results from my googling... So could you clarify if the DeskPi Super6C does work correctly with the Raspberry PI CM5 in terms of both network and nvme storage on this board? As well as with all the 'Module 1' IOs?

@nekomatic - AFACT yes, I was able to get network, NVMe, etc. all working on the 3-node Pi 5 cluster I set up on a board. I didn't have more than 3 CM5s at the time I recorded my video testing it.

Hi, wondering if you can confirm if the "Waveshare CM4-NANO-B" board + "CM5 Pi" combination produces audio through the 3.5mm jack when played on the Pi? This would be perfect for my setup but I wanted to confirm.

It will be helpful to know if cm4 nano A also works with cm5 , thanks

Watching this thread to know when to migrate my Radxa Taco NAS from a CM4. A 16G/64G CM5 came in the mail today, and I'm itching to make it useful.

If you can feed me test procedures (like, I know plug the board into the board and turn on, but I want to know what other data you'd like to have if I get it booted), I can try them together.
